People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 482 Changing Fate Against Heaven
Time passed, and finally, in the packed hall, the last two names were finalized, and the final match of the Jiaolong Cup officially began.

Li Qi VS Zhuang Buzhou

While everyone was undoubtedly undeterred by the ten rounds of the semi-finals, they were still looking forward to this battle.

It's not that I'm hoping Zhuang Buzhou will suddenly unleash his full power and overturn Li Qi's car; the probability of that happening is practically zero.

Everyone simply hoped that in the final match, under the pressure of the great demon Li Qi, Zhuang Buzhou would unleash some spectacular swordsmanship.

Yesterday, Jiang Xinyuan's three strikes were already being talked about, and Zhuang Buzhou was clearly stronger. If he could also surpass himself under pressure, his final performance would surely be infinitely glorious.

Furthermore, the very purpose of the Jiaolong Cup is to allow competitors to surpass themselves in battle. Without fighting, how can one transform into a dragon?

But when the image froze, many live stream chats were flooded with comments, and the most prevalent one was undoubtedly this: "Master Zhuang, the other side is cheating, run! Are you stupid?"

While this was a joke, it actually hit the nail on the head.

Li Qi is now so powerful that even if the panel suddenly disappears, he is still an integrated cheat system. It's not just about whether it's on or off, it's the cheat itself.

As the two names were displayed, the venue fell silent. More than 300,000 people held their breath in anticipation. Li Qi walked calmly and slowly onto the stage.

Just as the audience expected, he also looked forward to seeing if Zhuang Buzhou, his former rival, could bring him a surprise in this final match after more than two months of preparation.

While their actual combat strength was certainly on a completely different level, Li Qi's mindset was not arrogant, but rather respectful of everyone who sought the truth and the Dao.

Although he cheated, he didn't laugh at or look down on the weak because of it. Once upon a time, he was just like a speck of dust.

If someone becomes arrogant and disdainful of everyone once they gain power, then they are undoubtedly a petty person who has forgotten where they came from.

Li Qi was certainly not that kind of person.

The scene was silent, with countless eyes focused on the stage, on Li Qi and Zhuang Buzhou, but the atmosphere was not oppressive, but rather filled with intense anticipation.

Despite the huge gap, they remained undaunted and unyielding; in a sense, this is also part of the brilliance and splendor of life.

Zhuang Buzhou and Li Qi left the contestant's seat together, but gradually, his steps became slower and slower. By the time Li Qi walked onto the stage, he had only walked halfway, and his steps became heavier and heavier.

But his eyes grew brighter and brighter, and his spine stood straight, like a long spear piercing the sky.

More than a minute later, Zhuang Buzhou finally walked onto the stage to face Li Qi.

"We finally meet on stage again. I thought that my martial arts skills had improved by leaps and bounds in the past two months, as if I had divine assistance, and that I would have a chance to overpower you. But I was wrong."

On the big screen, the sixty-second countdown had begun. Zhuang Buzhou spoke calmly at this moment, but unlike Jiang Xinyuan, he didn't even have the energy to speak when facing Li Qi.

Undoubtedly, Zhuang Buzhou's martial arts skills, as well as his mental fortitude, are far superior to Jiang Xinyuan's.

The Thirty-Three Heavens Ghost and God Karma Chart is not easy to cultivate. Even with talent, without great wisdom and courage, it is impossible to achieve it.

It is no easy task to subdue the spirits and deities of the universe with one's own power!

"Thoughts can never keep up with changes. Earlier, if I hadn't had the thought of cultivating, I might not be standing before you," Li Qi said calmly. "Instead of daydreaming, it's better to focus on cultivation. Accumulate knowledge day by day, and you will eventually achieve something." More than half a year ago, he was just an ordinary student. Although his memories had awakened and he had gained some advantages, if he had been lazy, he would never have snowballed to be as strong as he is now. Even with the opening of later dungeons, he would at most have just reached the level of mastery in swordsmanship.

A slow start leads to slow progress at every step; this is not just a saying.

At that time, Zhuang Buzhou was already a successful person with a net worth of over 10 billion, and a master who had broken through three levels of limits.

"maybe!"

Indeed, many changes in fate in this world originate from a single thought...

"A single thought can bring success, allowing one to rule the world for ten years with overwhelming power and prestige; a single thought can lead to failure, turning one into a prisoner for years, with one's life and death out of one's control..."

"You have a thought that arises, and I have a thought that defies fate; but the final outcome must be sought amidst the sword!"

Zhuang Buzhou was perceptive and naturally knew that Li Qi's words were not just a perfunctory response, but rather a statement of some fact.

What he was saying at that moment was not actually a response to Li Qi, but a message to himself. He was even about to wield his sword not to win, but to prove his own heart and his own cultivation.

He certainly craved victory, but at this moment, he was even more curious about how he would feel if he knowingly did something impossible but still forced himself to do it.

He may appear to be a martial arts master, but in essence, he is a businessman. When faced with known enormous risks, the most correct choice for a businessman is undoubtedly to give up as soon as possible.

Indeed, this is just a competition, and there seems to be no life-or-death crisis. But in fact, in such an occasion, once he stepped onto the field, Li Qi could kill him with a single blow, as long as the referee could not react in time.

It's just that under normal circumstances, no one would intentionally kill someone.

But there's always a chance of something going wrong. Knowing the huge gap between them, going on stage was a huge risk for a businessman like Zhuang Buzhou, a smart man.

Given his personality, the best option in this situation would naturally be to admit defeat. Even if he admits defeat, he'll still be second best, and it's not shameful. No one would laugh at him for being weak.

Even he himself didn't think there was anything wrong with admitting defeat.

But he still came to the stage and made a choice that went against his nature. This was undoubtedly going against fate and changing his own destiny!

At this moment, a dramatic change occurred in Zhuang Buzhou's spiritual world, especially in his inner vision. The Zhou Tian ghosts and gods that evolved from him, as he reversed his fate, he comprehended some kind of mystery of defying the heavens and changing destiny. The ghosts and gods also changed accordingly, and a strange aura emerged.

All of this was also known to Li Qi at this moment, through his insight that had reached the Gold-level quality. Almost simultaneously, a wondrous aura also appeared in his spiritual world and around his body.

With his current insight into reality, combined with the various buffs he possesses and his own strength, he might find it difficult to see through the Great True Person who has undergone Dao Transformation, but for others, if they clash with his mind and aura and form a connection in the unseen realm, they can see through him at a glance without any problem.

"Defy fate and change your destiny..."

"Zhuang Buzhou is indeed a great talent. Once he fully integrates with Tianxing, he will surely achieve great things!"

Li Qi stared at the person in front of him, and this thought immediately came to mind.
